Are we doomed to be perceived as arrogant? Is it Fi? Gosh darn it, I just want to help people! I was forced into a lifestyle where I had to fend for myself and figure everything out on my own, so I sympathise with those who are in need of help. But my tendency to go out of my way to help others has given some people the impression that I'm a know it all. I don't intend to be that way, it's just this weird desire to help others; so I attempt to find answers that they are unable to to assist them in some way even if its a field of study I'm not an expert in.

Seeing as it makes some people uncomfortable, I've stepped back, reflected and decided to stop focusing my efforts into others and focusing more on myself and my likes and dislikes.

Anyone have stories about their intentions being misunderstood in this way?
